Bosniak Oral Literature for Children Between Hermetic and Cultural Formation

Summary/Abstract: In former studies Bosniak oral literature, oral literature for children has not been treated as a separate area. She was covered in fragments, as a cultural formation, and remained in its own hermetism, inferior to literature for adults. Due to centuries of ignoring such a fact of the existence of oral literature for children, the fundamental issues within this area, remained unlighted. It is not surprising, given the fact that the literature for children in Bosnia and Herzegovina, as a corpus separatum, has long been ignored and minimized. Systematic study of literature for children in B&H was approached only in the middle of last century and many questions are still left open. Oral literature for children, incorporated in the entire oral art, subject to generally accepted literary theory classification of genders and types, and was not considered and studied as a separate segment. It is therefore necessary to conduct the revalorization of oral literary texts in order to isolate the corpus for children and determined it terminologically as “oral literature for children.”
